“Chinatown” features Bruce Springsteen
Bleachers have announced the release of two new tracks giving fans a sneak peek of new music off the forthcoming album which is set for release in 2021. The first taste of new music, “Chinatown” featuring Bruce Springsteen, along with the b-side track “45” are both out now – available both digitally and on 7”. Additionally the music video for “Chinatown” directed by Carlotta Kohl is out now.
“’Chinatown’ starts in NYC and travels to new jersey. that pull back to the place i am from mixed with terror of falling in love again,” says Bleachers’ Jack Antonoff. “Having to show your cards to someone and the shock when you see them for yourself. Thinking you know yourself and where you are from…. having to see yourself through somebody who you want to stay… I started to write this song with these ideas ringing in my head. To further understand who you are pushes you to further understand where you are from and what that looks and sounds like. There are pieces in that that are worth carrying forever and pieces worth letting die. ‘Chinatown’ and ’45’ are both the story of this – ‘Chinatown’ through someone else, ’45’ through the mirror. As for Bruce, it’s the honor of a lifetime to be joined by him. He is the artist who showed me that the sound of the place I am from has value and that there is a spirit here that needs to be taken all over the world.”
“Chinatown” is available on white 7″ vinyl from Bleachers’ store and is expected to ship next week.
